Highlights
Home of the Cougars, we believe that children need many avenues for learning and those outside of the classroom are equally important.
The academic, behavioral, emotional and social needs of middle school students require us to ensure that our approaches and supports are tailored to meet those needs. Teachers are organized into interdisciplinary teams so that they can work collaboratively on behalf of the students they serve.
Our school offers art, band, ceramics, drama, guitar and orchestra. We also have advanced classes in art, ceramics and drama for 8th graders. Students have opportunities to perform on campus and in the community.
Every student at our school receives a Chromebook and our teachers are trained to use these devices to enhance learning.
Collaborative partnerships allow our school to leverage family, school, and community resources to remove barriers to learning and provide essentials to families in need.
Tortolita Middle School is pleased to announce the achievement of Level 1 certification in Marzano High-Reliability Schools™. Level 1 certification means our school has created a “Safe, Supportive, and Collaborative Culture,” which is the foundation for every level that follows.
